Hafnium disulfide is an inorganic compound of hafnium and sulfur. It is a layered dichalcogenide with the chemical formula is HfS<sub>2</sub>. A few atomic layers of this material can be exfoliated using the standard Scotch Tape technique (see graphene) and used for the fabrication of a field-effect transistor. High-yield synthesis of HfS<sub>2</sub> has also been demonstrated using liquid phase exfoliation, resulting in the production of stable few-layer HfS<sub>2</sub> flakes. Hafnium disulfide powder can be produced by reacting hydrogen sulfide and hafnium oxides at 500âÂÂ1300 ðC.
